The nutrition facts reveal that this product contains 89 calories per serving, making it low in calories but relatively high in saturated fat (over 50% of total fat), moderate cholesterol, and sodium levels. The product is light on carbohydrates, sugars, and protein but lacks dietary fiber, potassium, and iron.
This product appears to be ultra-processed due to the presence of artificial color (yellow dye) and multiple stabilizers like xanthan gum, locust bean gum, and guar gum. Additionally, it contains cultured milk powder and dehydrated onion extracts, which suggest extensive processing to maintain its texture and shelf life.
Given that this product is not particularly healthy and high in sodium while offering minimal nutritional benefits, consider opting for a healthier alternative like plain Greek yogurt or hummus as a base for dips or spreads instead.
